A Russian-flagged vessel arrived on Thursday at the damaged pipelines of the Nord Stream gas pipeline in the Baltic Sea to carry out an inspection on behalf of the owners, the company and the Swedish navy announced.

The company that manages the pipeline said the "specially equipped vessel" had arrived at the site of "damage to the pipeline in Sweden's exclusive economic zone".

Katër rrjedhje u shfaqën në dy tubacionet Rrjedha Veriore në Detin Baltik në brigjet e ishullit danez të Bornholm në fund të shtatorit. Institutet sizmike raportuan se kishin regjistruar dy shpërthime nënujore përpara shfaqjes së rrjedhjeve.

Ndërsa rrjedhjet ishin në ujërat ndërkombëtare, dy prej tyre ishin në zonën ekskluzive ekonomike daneze dhe dy prej tyre në atë suedeze.

“Pas kryerjes së punimeve të kalibrimit, specialistët do të jenë gati brenda 24 orëve për të filluar studimin e zonës së dëmtuar që do të zgjatë tre deri në pesë ditë sipas vlerësimeve aktuale”, u tha në deklaratën e kompanisë që menaxhon Rrjedhën Veriore.

Jimmie Adamsson, zëdhënës i marinës suedeze, tha se "pronarët e Rrjedhës Veriore 1 na informuan disa javë më parë se donin të kishin inspektimin e tyre për dëmtimin e tubacionit”.

Adamsson added that there was no need for permission and that "in the Swedish exclusive economic zone anyone can do this kind of inspection".

On Wednesday, the Swedish navy announced that it had begun its new inspections this week to supplement an earlier inspection, but did not give details of what they were looking for.

Swedish authorities announced in early October that they had conducted an underwater inspection of the country and had collected "pieces of evidence" and that the inspection supported suspicions of sabotage.

The pipelines, which link Russia to Germany, have been at the center of geopolitical tensions since Russia cut off gas supplies to Europe in alleged retaliation to Western sanctions over Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.

Although they were not in operation when the leaks occurred, they both still contained gas./ REL
